hugo Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Here's the link to RYP regarding the 2006 forks information: http://www.shercousa.com/pdfs/2006fork.pdf (The document was posted for the 2006 models at the time but I believe the same would be applicable to 2007 as well.) Now for the oil weight, the document specifies "OJ RACING TYPE 01" - If you're interested in comparing this "OJ racing oil" with other brands, the folllowing chart gets useful: http://www.gasgasrider.org/html/susp-oil.htm Interesting to see that differents oils marketed under the same "weight number" don't actually have the same viscosity at all.

copemech Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 (edited) I guess someone has found that OJ Racing stuff, anyway, the Maxima looks close, I think! Wonder where the ATF fits in there? I never use it in the forks as it is required to have too much stiction! Viscosity is not everything you know!
